The petitioner, the owner of stage carriage No.KL-05-S-6915 applied for temporary permit on the route Village Hall - Kottayam in the vacancy of stage carriage No.KL-05-410. The petitioner has approached this Court with a prayer to direct the respondent to grant and issue temporary permit to the petitioner's stage carriage No.KL-05-S-6915 on the route Village Hall - Kottayam in the vacant timings of stage carriage bearing No.KL-05-410. 2. If vacancy of stage carriage bearing registration No. KL-05-410 is still in existence and no other person having better claim has applied for a temporary permit to operate a stage carriage in that vacancy, there will be a direction to the respondent to issue a temporary permit of four months duration within one week from the date of production of a copy of this judgment by passing appropriate orders on Ext.P1. Needless to say, such issuance of temporary permit will be subject to the preferential claim if any.
Writ petition is disposed of.
